Technology Available for Licensing

海角社区researchers are developing cutting-edge solutions that have the potential to transform industries and lives, and we are always looking to partner with industry to further research and commercialize them. If you wish to receive email alerts when new technologies become available, please contact j.kantner@unf.edu.

Current 海角社区technologies that are available to license include:



Available Technology

  • Advanced Soil Strengthening and Stabilization

    The 海角社区 is seeking companies interested in commercializing a new soil stabilization technology that shows significant strengthening of a wide variety of soil types. Named by the inventors as 'Surfactant-Induced Soil Strengthening' (SISS), it provides an inexpensive, easily applied, and comparatively environmentally safe alternative for a wide variety of potential applications ranging from construction to dune stabilization.

  • Modular Medical Mobility Device

    The 海角社区 is seeking companies interested in commercializing a new reconfigurable system of modules that make up a battery-powered medical mobility vehicle for rehabilitation and developmental purposes.

  • Peptoid-Based Cancer Inhibitor

    The 海角社区 is seeking companies interested in commercializing peptoid-based compounds that show great promise as novel therapeutics against prostate, breast, and lung cancer, as well as leukemia, and may also be effective against a number of other diseases.

  • Aromatic Diazonium Salts for Building SF5-Bearing Molecules

    The 海角社区 is seeking companies interested in commercializing new synthetic methods for the preparation of pentauorosulfanyl (SF5) aromatic diazonium salts and the application of such salts as building blocks for a wide variety of compounds useful in biomedical, pharmaceutical, agricultural, and materials applications. The new methods facilitate access to a wide variety of SF5-aromatic compounds whose synthesis by other means is challenging and not economical due to their reliance on exotic/hazardous reagents and harsh conditions.

  • Direct Methanol Fuel Cell Technologies

    The 海角社区 is seeking companies interested in commercializing direct methanol fuel cells for greater energy storage capacity in portable electronics, including laptops. The direct methanol fuel cells (DMFCs) are two to three times smaller than available rechargeable batteries for 24-hour operation. Methanol is an inexpensive, widely available fuel that can be extracted from both natural gas and renewable plant materials, such as wood. Though long-lasting, existing DMFCs are the size of a briefcase and require bulky fans, exit condensers and other water management components to function properly.

  • Injection Mold Coating to Extend Lifetime and Performance

    This invention is a unique system for protecting 3D-printed plastic molds from the thermal and physical stresses to which they are exposed when used in injection molding. The 海角社区technology extends the life of these molds to 1000 or more parts, allowing 3D-printed polymeric molds to be viable solutions for gap-stop for rapid need production, small-batch high-profit parts, and rapid prototyping runs.

  • Nanocrystalline Oxide Semi-Conducive Gas Sensors (NOS)

    In recent years, focus has increased in developing advanced ways to ensure national security and to ensure consistency and quality in consumer products. Although there have been notable advancements in the field, current sensors lack sensitivity, have high labor costs, and are limited in their applications. 海角社区Nanocrystalline Oxide Semi-Conducive Gas Sensor solutions represent a breakthrough technology in this field.

  • Photoelectric Chemical Sensors (PECS)

    An increased need now exists for advanced technologies to ensure national security, to monitor for public safety and environmental issues, and to aid in maintaining manufacturing safety and quality control. Although there have been notable advancements in the field, current sensor technology lacks sensitivity, has high associated labor costs, and is limited in its applications. 海角社区photoelectric chemical sensor solutions represent a breakthrough technology in this field.

  • Photoelectric Microbe Sensors (PEMS)

    The use of sensors has increasingly become accepted as an innovative solution for a diverse range of functions and needs. The 海角社区's Photoelectric Microbe Sensors, also known as PEMS, can accurately detect and identify microbes (both viruses and bacteria) in near real-time. 海角社区PEMS are cutting edge technology and their applications are numerous. Government agencies can have a more advanced way to ensure national security, the medical field can rapidly diagnose illnesses and microbial outbreaks, and the quality and consistency of manufacturing and agriculture goods can be carefully maintained.

  • Synthetic Curcuminoids for Fighting Cancer

    These new 鈥渃urcuminoid-inspired鈥 compounds show great promise as anti-cancer drugs. Through patent-pending synthetic methods, the resulting compounds exhibit substantially increased bioavailability and stability compared with unmodified curcuminoids. In-vitro bioassays of several of the compounds demonstrate remarkable antiproliferative and apoptotic effects against cancer cell lines at the nano-molar dosage.
